INSIGHT

Healthy Nervous System Flexibility

  • A healthy nervous system is flexible and responds appropriately, not always calm.
  • It's designed to keep us safe by activating fight, flight, or shutdown when needed.
ADVICE

Incremental Discomfort Builds Resilience

  • Step into discomfort incrementally to safely build resilience.
  • Stretch your comfort zone slowly to avoid triggering strong protective responses.
ADVICE

Daily Nervous System Self-Care

  • Treat nervous system regulation as daily self-care, not just crisis management.
  • Cultivate moment-to-moment awareness to maintain baseline regulation and avoid burnout.
